Another day another morning for Eve. Eve woke up to the sound of dishes coming from her kitchen. she got up and walked toward her kitchen wearing her robe. she saw a beautiful lady wearing a shirt and skirt. The woman had black hair tied into a bun and had similar eyes to her. Eve smiled and hugged her mother from behind. "You are back," Eve said while burring her head into her mom's neck. she took the most comforting scent of her mom's and smiled.
Reva Han was a beautiful lady in her 50s. She is a well-known cardiologist and owner of the Han Hospitals and Pharmaceuticals. Reva giggled and patted her daughter's head gently "Good morning Eve. Go get a shower, you stinky girl." Reva said pushing her aside.
Eve grunted and left to get a shower. After freshening up she walked to the dining table and sat opposite her mother. Reva served her breakfast and poured her some juice. After serving her the pair of mother and daughter started eating while listening to mild music which was playing on the sound system. it's an old habit of mother and daughter to listen to music while having food. it gave them a sense of comfort.
"Eve I think it's time for you to move back to country F. it's already been 12 years and I can't ignore that old man's bickering anymore. Even your Father was asking for you to come back." Reva said while scrutinizing her daughter's unbothered expressions. she sighed and continued "And most importantly I want you to take over my business now your mom is getting old day by day. now I want some rest and want to find myself a boyfriend."
Eve who just sipped juice suddenly start choking she wiped her mouth and glared at her mom. "Don't you think it's my turn to find a boyfriend now and most importantly why are you passing all your burden on my shoulders? Have you forgotten that you have a son as well go and ask him to manage your business?"
"Stop with your excuses you know how much I want you to have a boyfriend or a husband but look at you. you are already 27 and still single more over about your brother He is already handling Ruan's Family business so I don't want to bother him." She sighed heavily and continued "I am tired now my love so please listen to mom and let's go back. I want to spend the rest of my life without any worry. Please.."
Eve saw her mother pleading eyes and rolled her eyes at her tantrums. she then nodded and said "Fine but give me some time to wrap up my work here."
Reva laughed excitedly and stood up to leave "ok, I have already booked the tickets for this upcoming Sunday you have 5 days to wrap up and pack your bags momma loves you bye." she didn't even let Eve react before storming out from her condo.
Eve was still dumbstruck by her mother's announcement. shook her head and murmured, "How I wish to have a normal mom."
...
In country F
Ruan Family villa
Today Ruan's family villa is busier than usual. the maids are running here and there. the old master Ruan wants everything in the house to be according to young miss's taste. he is changing the structure of the entire house even the colour of the walls should be of young missus's taste. The butler of the house is supervising everything by himself.
The maids and the butler were busy doing their work when they heard the sound of heels which indicates the arrival of certain someone.
" What the hell is going on here? how dare all of you replace my things? Didn't I tell all of you not to touch the things that I the mistress of this house has taken a liking to? How dare all of you disobey me?"
"Sorry, madam but it's an old master order to change things and furniture." said the butler while continuing his instructions. "Replace that painting as well we need to finish everything before Sunday."
Seeing her favourite painting being replaced by another one Cristina is fuming with anger. she gritted her teeths and roared in anger."what the hell do you think you are doing? you can't replace it I bought is from west city do you know how expansive it is. All of you get out from my home and take out that trash things with you to. it's an order."
"Who the hell do you think you are to chase them away." a voice roared as a thunder in entire mansion making Christina almost pee in her dress.
An old man with a walking stick stood on top floor. he walked down the stairs steadily. He had a pair of blue eyes and grey hairs. His face had a stern look making the women shiver infront of him. He sat on single sofa and signel the butler to continue his work. John quickly bowed to his master and continued.
Old master Ruan then gazed toward the woman who now had a smile on her face. she hid her facade face behind that smiled and went to greet old man.
"Old master I was just..." before she could finish old Master Ruan hit his stick hard on the ground and said with stern face.
"Didn't I told you before that don't forget your place in this house. You are here just because of your daughter if not I have thrown you out long ago."
Old master Ruan was angered by the women he didn't gave her any face which made Cristina leave in sobs. Soon she arrived on 2nd floor and knock vigorously on the door.
The person inside the room opened the door and saw her mother standing in front. Estela looked at her mother's angry face and sighed. she turned around and snuggle in her bed tiredly.
"You unfaithful daughter how could you sleep so soundly when your mother is suffering." Cristina yelled at her daughter who didn't even consule her. "are you even listening what I am saying?" Cristina roared when she didn't hear any reply from her.
"Mom let me sleep I am tired please." a soft voice came from the white duvet.
